In OE click Tools/Accounts,
Click the "Mail" tab.
Listed will be your email accounts
Under the heading "Connection" it should say:
"Any available", but for the accounts that are
the ones being problematic it may list "dial-up"
when you require ASDL, cable etc
If so, click to Hi-light the account then click the
"Properties" button.
Under "General" tab It should already be checked:
"Include this account when receiving etc"
Click the "Connection" tab.
In the drop-down menu select either "Any available"
or your default connection.
Click "Apply" then "OK".
